>Description:
Ideally ports should be installable by non-root users with
make PREFIX=$HOME install clean
In practise this often fails because install(1) tries to set
user and group.
There are already provisions in bsd.port.mk for compatibility with
euid!=0 users. (Search for 'id -u' in bsd.port.mk!)
The patch below just fixes another case.
